Could you share your feeding schedule?
I read that your using the Fox Farm Nutes, but like do you go:
Water, Water, Feed
Do you mix all your nutes with molasses together or is it all done on separate days? Right now I am watering every 3-4 days so that only gives me like 1-2 waterings a week really ya know what I mean?

I feed with fox farm nutes, molasses, and botainicare sweet grape

i do a feed water feed water etc.

as far as the mixture goes that changes threwout the plants life cycle as to maintain a steady influx with raising the ppm.

oh man you just wait, that stuff stunk up my whole house, but I had two pretty decent sized ones tho...it smells so good tho! like mangos.

Ha I know what you mean. I couldn't turn on my ac cause it would circulate through the whole house. My buddy walked in one day and thought I had just got done smoking.

Hey, im just wondering but when should i start adding nutes?

 

[Johnboh]

Hey, im just wondering but when should i start adding nutes?

that depends on a few variables.

what type of grow medium are you using?

what age are your plants?

if your using soil, what type of soil?

 

[tbyles]

my grow medium is soil and im using sta-green fert. plants are age 0 im in the germination stage.

 

[Johnboh]

what brand of soil are you using?

what is the NPK rating on the bottle of fert you have?

Your plants traditionally do not need any nutes until the cotyledon (feeder) leaves have fallen off, these are first set of opposing leaves to come out.

This usually takes about 2 weeks or so after sprouting has taken place.

 

[tbyles]

ah my soil is sta-green all purpose potting mix with fertilizer got a ph kit today.

 

[Johnboh]

Miracle Grow soil is the worst thing you could use.

You want to use an organic soil. look for soil that is not fortified with any nutrients.

check out foxfarm they have a good line of soil. there are also other ones out there as well. i recommend going to your local hydroshop and seeing what they have.

 

[tbyles]

no local hydro shop. sucks

 

[Johnboh]

try htgsupply.com

there are many other sites that will ship to you. dont let anyone scare you off from ordering supplies online. its no big deal

 

[volcomrider157]

I always use miracle grow moisture control potting soil to get mine started...its always worked fine for me.
